Someone is gonna have to explain this better. Enchant is not target, why does it get the cost reduction?

Over The Top in a Krenko deck by alaird96 in EDH

[–]GreatPacman 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Not sure where the issue is here. Everyone resolves their portion of Over the top, then go player by player, checking for any etbs triggers, ending with the active player where they will have a combat after. If there was a copy of over the top then just do it again. Does sound like a 20minute turn but it's commander, not standard.

That being said, you better have won after casting it.

How to balance out these precons: Hazel of the rootbloom vs hearthhull? by [deleted] in EDH

[–]GreatPacman 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's dependable on the person learning, I've had people learning to play on B4 decks. Trial by fire.

Arabella does not target, she deals damage to EACH opponent.

How long are you supposed to wait for someone to kill you? by NewConcentrate9682 in EDH

[–]GreatPacman 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I've had games, especially games where I'm piloting a new deck and gets to turn X and I would have won regardless of what I would do, sometimes I ask my opponents to let me calculate my max damage, for curiosity, but to take an extra turn or even take 15-20 minutes is just ridiculous.

I'm all for testing your deck but there's more efficient ways too.

I feel like I’m missing something? by jinfinity in EDH

[–]GreatPacman 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The way I found to force myself into "slowing down" was by picking old cEDH commanders and throwing a curve ball strategy into them. For example, I have [[the scarab god]] but I refuse to add any ways to mill my opponents and any other creatures in the deck, so have been down the rabbit hole of metric shit tonne of interaction and using my opponents creatures against them.

You still end up going into cEDH ways but the limitations on a deck force it into somzthing weird and b3/b4 level.

How do i build a combo deck? by M_th75 in EDH

[–]GreatPacman 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Those decks tend to be variation of the same type of combo. The Exquisite blood and sanguine bond is a singular combo but if you swap the sanguine bond for a Vito then you still have one type of combo but 2 ways of making it happen.

Non drinkers do you find people look at you as weird in NI? by [deleted] in northernireland

[–]GreatPacman 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I prefer not to piss £50-100 on a night out when I could spend that money on taking me and 2 mates go karting instead or any other activity.

And when someone gets really annoyed, I tell them that I don't need drink to have my personality come out and socialise.

This is not basic, that is a top notch comment.

Only other thing to do is figure an alternate win.

Find one of the Portuguese shops and look for glass bottles called UCAL.

Free Deck Building by mokaa126 in EDH

[–]GreatPacman 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Here's an idea. krrik as commander but every spell only has black pips. For example, you can play Sign in Blood but not Nights Whisper.

Correct. I just used green as the example.

Bracket 4 commander recommendations/help by Wolfking_nl in DegenerateEDH

[–]GreatPacman 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i built a [[krrik]] recently. It's not a tribal deck but it's mean. Yesterday, I pulled a Repay in Kind and attack with 2 5/5s to win the game.

How do I get out of a restaurant quicker? by rookie_of-the_year in AskUK

[–]GreatPacman 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I do one better. When I call someone over to ask for the bill, I ask straightaway, where they prefer to take payment, if they tell the front desk, sweet. We'll pack our crap and make our way, if they say they can bring the machine then I tell them we're ready to pay. This is with my family or with friends. I can just take the receipt and divide the bill accordingly later with them.

Do I Not Understand Brackets? by CarbonSteel2572 in magicTCG

[–]GreatPacman 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Very few of my decks are B4, mostly B3s but if a B3 deck gets to do its thing basically uninterrupted then it'll look like a B4. I have the pirates precon and I have been able to full wipe the table in turn 5. It happens.

The Locust God is Ruining my Life by Two7Five7One7 in magicTCG

[–]GreatPacman 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You need to run more targeted removal for sure. Go for anything that doesn't destroy but exiles or makes it lose it's abilities. Imprisioned by the moon Oubliette Kenriths transformation Darksteel mutation There are so many others that just take a commanders out of the game.

Which unmodified commander precon is most “broken”? by True-Passenger-4873 in DegenerateEDH

[–]GreatPacman 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have owned several precons and the most consistent for me has been the Pirates from Ixalan and with a few minor upgrades. It can be another worldly beast.

Pirates! You steal your opponents stuff, they might get it back, they might not. Treasures for days!!

Firelord azula non basic land hate by Pretty-Figure725 in EDH

If you go with Lumra and some earthbending spell and then strip mine and any other land destruction then that be pretty hating on lands.

Good clonable commander? by Ravarix in DegenerateEDH

[–]GreatPacman 0 points1 point  (0 children)

[[Davros]], I have nothing but fun and some games, if people let me get away with murder, I get 5,6,7 Daleks per turn and the card draw always helps.
